It was said that the Woodwoses who frequented the woodlands around Yellowham Hill, savage, hairy, humanoid creatures, were more than partial to carrying off maidens from the nearby villages, and their convenient existence, not to mention their penchant for virgins was, in the past, often cited as probable cause for many young ladies who might have found themselves in a compromising position.
